Can bicyclists coexist with trolley rails? U. City takes a look, considers bicycle ban as part of solution | stltoday.com

Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

Street signs posted in the Delmar Loop already warn bicyclists of the danger of spillovers if their tires get caught in the rails laid for the trolley line expected to open in a few months.

Now some University City officials are considering whether more should be done to prevent such accidents — perhaps even prohibiting bikes along the congested western end of the line in the Delmar Loop entertainment area.

Concern about the safety of bicyclists is the latest twist in the long-running saga of the $51-million taxpayer-funded transportation project that links the Loop to the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park.

Sinan Alpaslan, University City’s public works and parks director, said Thursday that a ban on bikes in the Loop was among various ideas his staff would examine.
